PDP IS THE RIGHT PARTY FOR NIGERIA -Jonathan
President Goodluck Jonathan has said that PDP will work to
lead Nigeria to attain its destined position.
Jonathan spoke in Sokoto on Saturday at a grand reception
organised for a former governor of the state, Alhaji Attahiru Bafarawa, who
defected to PDP with his supporters from APC.
“The PDP is the only party that is able and it will
continue to portray the tenets of democracy.
“The PDP respects the rule of law at all levels and we
respect the constitution,” he said.
Jonathan said PDP was the number one party in Nigeria and
would continue to be so.
He further said that the Federal Government under the party
would continue to deliver the dividends of democracy to Nigerians.
Jonathan commended the people of the state for their
sustained support for PDP and urged them not to relent.
He commiserated with the people and government of the state
over the recent fire disaster at Kara Market in Sokoto.
Also, Vice-President Namadi Sambo and Senate President David
Mark expressed happiness with the defection of Bafarawa to the party.
“The PDP umbrella is getting filled up and the PDP will
sustain the provision of the dividends of democracy to Nigerians,” Sambo
promised.
The National Chairman of PDP, Alhaji Adamu Mu’azu, described
PDP as the winning party.
“The achievements of the PDP are tangible all over the
nation and this would be sustained,” Mu’azu said.
The Chairman of PDP Governors’ Forum, Gov. Godswill Akpabio
of Akwa Ibom, said that no amount of conspiracy would stop PDP from winning the
elections at all levels in 2015.
The Sokoto State Deputy Governor, Alhaji Mukhtari Shagari,
said PDP was the most organised, disciplined and resourceful party in Nigeria.
“The achievements of the PDP in the state and Nigeria
generally speak for themselves.
“The president loves Nigeria and he has demonstrated this
love in many ways,” Shagari said.
Bafarawa said that he defected to PDP, following the
decision of his supporters and promised that Sokoto State would be delivered to
PDP at all levels in 2015.
“We will work to ensure the success of the party. We joined
the PDP based on principle, to build democracy and Nigeria,” Bafarawa, said.
